THE DARKEST HOUR,

For period of four years Eve been victim
of very severe and agonizing case Of SAT-
Rheum, which affected my hands to such an
extent that they almost become burden.
My hand be came raw and horrifying, com
pelling me tokeep it covered all the time.
I've spent hundreds of dollars for various
preparations, but instead of beneftting my con-
dition, they all seemed to stimulate and en-
courage the progress of the miserable disease,
until had about given up all hope.
But thank heaven, "the darkest nour is Just
before day." and am rejoicei to know that a
positive cure has been found, which is known
as B. B. B.-Botanic Blood Balm.
My family all rejoice at its magical curative
powers in giving me relief My hand has been
cured and resembles a burnt surface after being
healed over, more than anything else. It has
also cured my two children of Ioashesome
form of Itch which had resisted all previous
treatment. l refer to any business house in
Moody and to Thomas Payne, Druggist of
whom purchased the goods.

with loathsome form OF Blood Poison, which
had about eaten me up, and and others had
no hope of a recovery. For awhile 1 could
neither walls, sit down, nor lie down, only m
misery as my flesh seemed to be falling off MY
bones in pieces as big as a hen egg My appe-
tite was lost, my bones ached and panied me,
and friends even summed me. used various
blood purifiers without benefit. and several
physicians treated me until large sums of mon
ey had been expended, but not one particle OF
good did any one give me.
On the 10th of February, 1856, Mr.. F. p
jackson called to see If was not dead, as it was
thought that | could not endure m suffering
much longer. He concluded to trr B. B. B. on
me and got bottle from Mr.. Brockington, at

Soft EDWARD PAYsoN HALL.
The true northerner. [volume] (Paw Paw, Mich.) 1855-1920, 1887-04-13

The scenes enacted at some of the polling
places in the city of Detroit, as related by
the papers of that town, we're disgraceful in
the extreme. Ladies were insulted, drunken
men reeled up to the polls and voted "prohi-
bition, no. cider. beer and whiskey were
freely passed around among the besotted and
drunken crowd. votes were taken in one end
of saloon, while beer and whiskey flowed
freely in the other prohibition banners were
torn down. prohibition voters hustled away
from the polls and prevented from voting,
and yet such things are called exercising the
highest right of American citizenship and an
expression of the freeman's will. 1t is non
sense 10 contend that an honest ballot could
have been had in the midst of scenes like
these, that would disgrace an assemblage of
Fiji Islanders. How proud Hon. ID. BETHUNE
DUFF1ELD. Prof. C. A. KENT and their back
ers, who claim to be the true friends of the
temperance cause. must feel of their coadju-
tors and fellow voters.
The true northerner. [volume] (Paw Paw, Mich.) 1855-1920, 1887-04-13

The Free Press of Saturday said that
some of the counties giving heavy prohibit
ton majorities, the vote cast on the amend
ment was so much in excess of that of state
officers as to excite suspicion. Van Buren,
was especially mentioned as one of the coun-
ties. and it was said that the excess there
was 500" Evidently the anti-amendment
frauds of Detroit are trying TO raise dust
for the purpose of obscuring some of their
own iniquitous practices. That there was a
much larger vote cast on the prohibitory
amendment in this county than for state
officers is true, bat whether there were 800
such votes or not cannot be determined at
this writing. But if such should prove to
be the case. there Is nothing strange about it
and it does not indicate fraud. Take, for
instance, the township of Paw Paw, in which
there appear just $40 names of voters OH the
poll lists as kept by the clerks of election.
OF these, G35 voted the township ticket, 625
voted OH the prohibition amendment. while
only 572 voted the state ticket. Five voterc,
it will be seen, neglected to vote for township
officers. fifteen did not vote on the amend
ment and fifty-eight omitted to vote the
state ticket, either through indifference or
forgetfulness. And similar state of affairs
will be found to exist at nearly or quite every
polling place in the county. 1t is not at all
Et-alu tbof fhare 1Na CHI, oil
at which there were as many state tickets
cast as there were voters who exercised
their right of franchise. A few of the town
ships taken at random will serve to show the
truth OF such proposition; the figures are
taken from the official returns on file in the
Office of the county clerk. In South Haven
there were 49, amendment ballots and 46G
votes for the state ticket, an excess of TWEEN
ty-ones In Pine Grove there were SD
amendment votes and 32g votes for the state
ticket, an excess of twenty-five. In Covert
there were 222 amendment ballots and only
20i for the state ticket an excess OF eighteen
Every man who has served as member oil
an election board at q spring election knows
that there are always some voters who are
very anxious about local officers, but who
care comparatively little about The stat,
ticket. The prohibition question bad been
50 thoroughly clnyassed that no one omitted
vote on that question unless he did il
deliberately, while comparatively little atten
ton had been paid to the general ticket. L
may astonish the rum-ridden people Of Tho
metropolis of the state to understand how
the good people of Van Buren, county shoult
refuse TO bow down to the shrine Of ~
The true northerner. [volume] (Paw Paw, Mich.) 1855-1920, 1887-04-13

Jusr before the election, Chairman WESTON
of the democratic state central committee
said: "Our campaign is practically closed.
Ipredict the election of the entire democratic
state ticket by 10000 majority" AS polit-
ical prophet Mr.. WESTON is most brilliant
failure. He is probably convinced by this
time that his hindsight is much better than
his foresight. But then, that has long been
a peculiar failing of Michigan democratic
politicians.
